1st global run in LS1: Global Run In November (GRIN) https://twiki.cern.ch/twiki/bin/view/CMS/GlobalRunInNovember2013 • 4 – 8 November • Technical run to verify we can still run after 9 months • Some of the goals… • Offline: test new Tier-0 hardware & exercise data flow • HCAL: look at new hardware w/cosmics Monday • CSC: run with ME+2 and ME+3 Wednesday • L1: increase trigger latency +12bx Thursday • DT: test new sector collector Friday G. Rakness (UCLA)
Status at noon today… http://cmsonline.cern.ch/daqStatusSCX/aDAQmon/DAQstatusGre.jpg This is especially impressive, given that there was a power cut on Saturday… We can still run and send data to Tier-0… G. Rakness (UCLA)
ME4/2 commissioning Spent a couple hours with Misha, Evaldas, Karoly, and Eric to discuss what they are seeing • CSC team is running STEP tests on ME+4/2 back chambers • Most of them are functioning OK • Main issue they were asking me about… • Timing of Data AVailable bit (bits that tell DMB that TMB, ALCT, and/or CFEB are sending data) • Recall: delay values depend ~only on the cable length (is fixed value for TMB since DMB is just next to it) G. Rakness (UCLA)
DAV problems • Problems… • The ALCT and CFEB values changed for the ME+4/2 chambers that were already working in Run 1 • The TMB data is not being seen by DMB at all • Suggestion: for the moment, change ALCT and CFEB values as needed, and ask OSU about the TMB DAV • Will allow them to press on to run most STEP tests on most chambers, and to think a bit about the CFEB+ALCT DAVs… • Will return again to TMB DAV tomorrow… hopefully Stan and Ben have some ideas in the meantime… G. Rakness (UCLA)
To do • 12 – 14 Nov: Trigger EDR • 15 Nov: HCAL review • Run Coordination hoo-hah • Finish job description (almost there!) • Inquire about subsystem DCS status • Settle on shifts for 2014 • Control room: talk to CMS Safety (details), sysadmins(infrastructure), Austin (schedule), Frans (underground control room) • Follow up question on lumi section length • How to improve 2015 operations? • Pick up neutron note • Read it again… what all is left to be done? • Chad’s analysis documented here: http://cern.ch/rakness/internal/log/1111/log.html G.
